## Reviews

### "Flexible software that is easy to learn and use." — 4.0/5

> **Kelly** | *5 December 2018* | Veterinary | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It is a robust software package with good integration with other Idexx offerings. The integration increases the value of each service offering. They provide continued improvements on the user interface and enhanced functionality. The learning center provides fantastic training resources for new hires and those needing a refresher.
> 
> **Cons**: New enhancements seem to take priority over improvement to known deficiencies, such as the functionality of the multi-location single database systems. I would like more options to capture data for reporting and analytics. You can gather most information, but need a good grasp of excel to manipulate and combine it.
> 
> As a paperless practice utilizing many of the Idexx platforms and services, we are power users of Cornerstone. We have two practices within 15 miles of each other and we need to be able to access client records from either, or remotely. It's been a good solution for our practice. I've used several practice management software systems and while none of them are perfect for everyone, Idexx has the ability to invest in it's technology and continue to make improvements.  It really does offer robust options and flexibility for many practices to use the features that are a good fit for them.

### "Cornerstone - great integration and features" — 4.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *14 December 2018* | Veterinary | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I like that cornerstone is used-friendly and has many great features such as the boarding module, integration with Idexx, correspondence features and ability to automatically update prices when cost of inventory changes.
> 
> **Cons**: We often run into glitches that affect various aspects of the Cornerstone system from time to time. When we call customer support, we often have to be transferred between multiple people. However, even though we have a case number we have to explain the situation from the beginning to each new person we walk to. Also, updates are very time consuming.
> 
> Cornerstone brings many advantages to our practice. It enhances our client communication, and integrates seamlessly with Idexx labs. All of our team members are able to easily learn how to use the cornerstone system. It simplifies inventory management and makes electronic record keeping a breeze. However, when issues arise with the cornerstone system it can be time consuming to address the issues.

### "CornerStone" — 1.0/5

> **Brook** | *25 November 2024* | Veterinary | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Nothing. I find this software archaic and out of date. I do not find any features useful with this product
> 
> **Cons**: The reports. There is no way to specify the dates you would like to run reports for. This is a huge problem when it comes time for accounting to be done.
> 
> Awful from the price to the product. I wouldn't recommend this product for anyone.

-----

### "Ease of use" — 4.0/5

> **Cindy** | *13 November 2018* | Veterinary | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: color coding appts.,  reports that can for generated, time clock feature, email capabilities within CS, client clip board, vet connect integration
> 
> **Cons**: not inventory friendly, not easy to set up and attach documents too many steps, need boarding module updates, seems like it takes too many "clicks" to get jobs done, would like a user friendly physical exam document with drop down options to add in our own diagnosis (like the physical exam which is no longer being supported).

-----

### "Versatile" — 5.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *19 October 2018* | Veterinary | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: This software has been a vital part of our practice for many years. it is versatile and medical record templates can be customized to your preferences. Our laboratory results integrate directly with the medical record and are available from remote locations through the internet (VetconnectPlus). There are additional features that we hope to integrate soon such as signature capture to further streamline our "paper lite" practice. &#10;Support is fantastic and readily available from Idexx.
> 
> **Cons**: Rarely, a feature we love gets lost in an upgrade and starts to glitch.
